Abstract 022: Acute Kidney Injury in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Exploring its Clinical Significance and Prognostic Implications

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Further research and attention to this area are crucial for improving patient outcomes and guiding clinical interventions in this challenging condition.MethodsICD‐10‐CM codes were used to query the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) for patients with AIS between 2010 and 2019. Patients with AKI were on average older (63.29

It is apparently fortunate that she had a cardiac arrest; otherwise, her ECG would have been ignored. Then they did an MRI: Patient underwent cardiac MRI on 10/4 that showed mildly reduced BiV systolic function. The degree of stenosis is not a great predictor of thrombosis, and culprits may not be visible.

Lowering Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Events by Treating Residual Inflammatory Risk

DAIC

12,16 In 2017, CANTOS (Canakinumab Anti-inflammatory Thrombosis Outcomes Study) provided proof-of-principle that inflammation inhibition in the absence of lipid lowering can significantly reduce cardiovascular event rates and helped to define the interleukin-1 (IL-1) to IL-6 to CRP pathway as a central target in CV disease.16 References: 1.

Chung-Ang University Study Looks at Cardiovascular Risks in COVID-19 Survivors

DAIC

Researchers analyze primary and secondary cardiovascular outcomes in 132,784 inpatients with COVID-19 (October 8, 2020 to September 30, 2021) and 31,173 inpatients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia (January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019) in Korea. The results indicate a lower risk of cardiovascular disease in COVID-19 patients.
